Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren has become a darling of the left for being an early promoter of the "you didn't build that" meme President Obama used during the 2012 presidential campaign, and for generally espousing positions to the left of Hillary Clinton.
The press rushed to Warren's defense in 2012 when compelling evidence that she had used her barely present Indian ancestry to "cheat on affirmative action" to advance her academic career went public. So it shouldn't surprise anyone that they have paid little attention to her recent outrageous attempt to establish her leftist bona fides as a harsh critic of Israel, seen in the video after the jump:
Transcript of opening section (HT Powerline):
AUDIENCE MEMBER: Eva Moseley, I’m not a student, I’m not an alumnae, but was in faculty life. I was also a Holocaust refugee and I’m extremely concerned that Jews don’t do to another people what was done to them.
ELIZABETH WARREN: (in the midst of audience applause) I think that's fair.
So apparently Liz Warren agrees with the audience member that there is legitimate reason to fear that Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government, if left to their own devices, would fire up the ovens, just like Adolf Hitler and the Nazis did, and inflict their own Holocaust on the people of Gaza.
Imagine what would happen if someone other than a darling of the left considered that sentiment to be "fair." The linked YouTube video went up on Monday, so it's more than fair to say, based on the results of this Google News search showing no establishment press coverage, that the nation's news gatekeepers have chosen to ignore it.
